Chapter 102 - I’m a man, and single (2/2)

Wood is reading a comic book in his hand with a serious face. Next to him is a bowl of instant noodles, soaked in boiling water and steaming hot. There is also a trash can in the corner of the room, which is full of bags and instant noodle cans.

I can’t help but say: “Is your house too messy?”

He does not look up. His face is hidden behind the book and replies mildly: “I am a man, and single.”

I nod and understand what he means. It’s normal for a single man to live in disorder.

I go into the room and pick up some comic books. They are all pornographic comics.

“Why are all pornographic comic books?” I ask again.

This time Wood finally puts down the book in his hand, looks at me, and still says with understatement: “I am a man, and single.”

I’m speechless.

It’s absolutely boring to be in a room with Wood, especially when he’s absorbed in reading.

I’m a little hungry and ask him: “Do you just eat instant noodles in the evening?”

He does not speak, but nods.

I can’t help asking: “Is there any more?”

“In the refrigerator, the second floor.”

I go to the refrigerator, open the door, look at the second floor, and am freezing instantly.

On the fridge pull-out layer, on the left is a bucket of braised beef instant noodle, and on the red package are delicious soup and large lucrative beefs. But this is not the key point! Next to it is a white sculpture, a very complete human skull! The eyes of two black holes in the skull look straight at me, as if they are emitting a gloomy light.

… I hold my breath for three seconds before I can shout: “My God!!!”

I bounce back like a lightning bolt and shout: “Wood! What the hell is this?!”

I’m afraid the expression on my face is deformed and I’m staring at Wood, who is sitting on the bed and reading. This fellow puts down his comic book and looks at me blankly. It takes him quite a while to think: “Oh… You say that?”

I’m furious: “How do you put this in the fridge?!” I feel my flesh is creeping.

Wood is sighing and finally looking at me very seriously this time, patiently saying: “I am a man, and single… And don’t forget, I’m still a doctor.”

I speak angrily: “Then you still can’t put this in the refrigerator!”

“There are rats in my house. The last one has been gnawed.” Wood’s innocent answer.

Five minutes later, I rush out of the door. I dare not to stay at that fellow’s home anymore.

Looking at the darkening weather, I feel a little helpless. After thinking about it, it seems that I have to stay in a hotel tonight.

I drive to a hotel and suddenly find myself have forgotten to take the government ID. I’m beginning to understand that it is my bad luck today.

Damn it! I’m so angry that I can’t help shouting: “At the worst, I just sleep in the car for a night!”

Just after scolding, the mobile phone in my pocket is ringing. I look at the number. It’s Dorra!

“Little 5! Chen Yang!!!” As soon as the phone is connected, Dorra’s anxious voice comes, and it seems to be very low, very urgent and somewhat panicky.

“What’s wrong?”

“I…I’ve met trouble!” The voice on the other end of the phone is almost crying, and there is a tremor in her voice, as if she is very scared.

I put aside my unhappiness and asking quickly: “What’s wrong with you? What’s happened?”

“I’m in trouble… Come and save me quickly. I’m in the eastern suburbs! Ah!!!”

In the end, there’s a cry from her on the other end of the phone, and then the phone suddenly goes off. My heart immediately tenses up, and I quickly dial back, but unfortunately the other end has shut down.

My heart is half cold! What happened to Dorra? What is it?

And the address she said… Damn it, It’s the villa area in the eastern suburbs! It’s next to the casino! Very close!

Dorra was entrusted to me by Juan! If something goes wrong with her, I won’t see Juan anymore. I’ll kill myself!

I quickly turn around, and no matter what the traffic lights are red or green, the car is just running across the road all the way!

I’m still anxious: Has Dorra’s identity been exposed? Has Jimmy Chou found anything? No way! But how does she appear in the eastern suburbs?
